Bridging finance refers to a short-term funding solution that “bridges” the gap between the need for immediate cash and the availability of long-term financing. It is commonly used in situations where individuals or businesses require quick access to capital, such as when purchasing a new property before selling an existing one. Bridging finance provides a temporary source of funding, typically secured against an asset, like property, and offers flexibility in terms of repayment options. Bridging finance serves as a valuable tool for overcoming financial hurdles and facilitating smooth transactions in various real estate and business scenarios.
